We recently connected with Heaven Williams and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Heaven , you’ve got such an interesting story, but before we jump into that, let’s first talk about a topic near and dear to us – generosity. We think success, happiness and wellbeing depends on authentic generosity and empathy and so we’d love to hear about how you become such a generous person – where do you think your generosity comes from?
I believe my generosity comes from the field I’m in. I love my career which is social work. I love giving back to my community and helping others who needs help.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
My name is Heaven Williams and I work in social services. My mission is to help my community as much as I can and to change the stigmatism of social workers. I love what I do, I love helping people. I’m currently focused on career and getting my masters in social work and to get licensed so I can do my own consulting and open a small private practice.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Three qualities that helped me are communication, patience, and confidence. I would say these three things helped me along my journey and still continue today to help me. My advice for people out there would be don’t be afraid to start over and try something new if its in your heart to do it. I was always afraid of starting over and worrying what people may thing of my career choices but I’m honestly so happy that I stuck with what my gut feelings was and what my heart was leading me too.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
yes, I’m looking for other social workers like myself to collaborate with or other people who want to change their community and make a difference.
